1Opinion of the Court

HALL, Circuit Judge:

DefendanL-Appellant PPG Industries, Inc. (“PPG”) appeals from an interlocutory order of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Chin, J.) finding PPG solely liable for the explosion and resultant constructive total loss of the MTV DG Harmony and its cargo. See 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(3). We reverse the district court’s determination that PPG was strictly liable under § 4(6) of the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act, 46 U.S.C. § 30701 note (“COGSA”). We also reverse the district court insofar as it held PPG liable under a general negligence theory.…
